Chapter 1
Insulted Felix!
"People say that after marriage fortune will flow more smoothly. But what is this? Not only is there no fortune, but my life is becoming more miserable by the day!" Arista, Felix's wife, washes the dishes so roughly that it makes a loud noise.
"I'm sick of living like this! Having a husband is completely useless. Working from morning to evening, being exposed to heat and rain, even getting ugly, but still not earning anything!" Arista continued to speak angrily. Her loud voice went along with the clinking of the plates on the shelf with a slight stomp. Even the running water splashed everywhere. "My life is unlucky! Bad husband, can't make any money, the house is like a pigsty, ah, how horrible life is!"
Felix, who was eating, could no longer stand Arista's ramblings. He took the last bite of his cracker and raised his gaze to stare at the back of the woman who was his wife. "Arista, can't you do the work without talking?"
"No!" snapped Arista as she rubbed the pot vigorously, making random loud noises.
Felix closed his eyes for a moment and stood up. "I've worked hard enough so far, but why are you never satisfied? Every day you just keep blabbering and calling me incompetent. Aren't you embarrassed to have your words heard by the neighbors?"
With that, Arista put down the pot she was holding threw down the dishwashing sponge, and turned around. She looked at Felix with angry eyes. "Working hard? Felix, I'm telling you, working hard isn't enough! You also have to rely on your brain to make more money! Look, you work until you're blue in the face, but what's the result? Nothing!"
"I'm not at all embarrassed if the neighbors hear my words. After all, that's the truth. Why, are you embarrassed?" Arista was getting worse and worse. She did not look like she was talking to a husband.
"At least we can eat our fill," said Felix, who was still trying to contain his emotions. He didn't want any fuss on such an early day. "You know yourself, finding a job is hard. We're lucky enough to have a house and never lack for rice."
"But that's not enough!" cried Arista. She took a step forward, stared at Felix with a glare, and then pointed boldly at his face. "Do you think life is just about eating and sleeping? No! I also need vacations, fancy jewelry, and cars. Felix, if I'd known you'd end up like this, I wouldn't have wanted to marry you!"
"Enough, Arista!" snapped Felix. His face was flushed with his jaw hardened to the point that the veins in his neck were visible.
With clenched fists, he said, "I'll pretend I never heard anything from you today. Just like before."
After that, he turned around and walked out of the kitchen after picking up the brown hat that lay on the dining table.
Seeing him leave so casually, Arista became even more furious. She ran after him and shouted, "I hate you! A husband who is incapable of making his wife happy! In your little brain, you only know how to eat and sleep, and that doesn't reflect the attitude of a responsible man! If I could turn back time, I would never want to know and marry you, poor Felix!"
But Felix didn't care at all. He put on his hat and walked out of the house. And when he reached the terrace, he found the neighbors already standing in his yard.
His gaze became cold.
He looked at them warningly.
The gossiping mothers immediately dispersed when they saw Felix's terrifying figure. But before leaving, they still had time to whisper to each other to make fun of Felix.
"If you have enough free time, I will voluntarily teach you what it means to whisper and how to do it," Felix said flatly.
With that, everyone no longer dared to be outside. They immediately entered their respective houses and closed the doors tightly.
"You bastards," muttered Felix as he casually walked away.
After being laid off five years ago due to the bankruptcy of the company he worked for, he had been working odd jobs.
Anything, as long as he could make money, Felix accepted.
And now, there happened to be a project in one of the big housing estates. He worked there as a manual laborer.
The location was not too far away, but it took about 20 minutes to reach by foot.
After a while of walking, accompanied by the condescending looks of the people around him who knew him, Felix finally arrived at his workplace.
"Wow, our manual laborer has finally arrived!" A man sitting at the back of a barstool freight car greeted Felix's arrival.
Several other men immediately turned their heads when they heard this. They laughed with a scornful look.
"Woi, Felix, quickly go to your place! We've been waiting for you for a long time! If this keeps up, this project will take forever to finish!" shouted a man standing on top of a half-finished building.
Felix looked up and nodded, then took a small jog towards the equipment storage area.
A man approached Felix, who was wearing a safety helmet. He tapped him on the shoulder and said seriously. "You should buy a vehicle so you can get to work quickly. There is no need to live too frugally. You should make yourself happy with your hard work once in a while."
"Right," said a man who had just arrived. He pretended to tidy up a pile of workers' safety vests and when he saw Felix about to leave, he quickly followed. "If you don't have enough money, you can borrow some from us. There's no need to be shy, we're friends. Of course, if you don't have money, you can come to us."
There was nothing strange about the words, but their tone was insulting.
Felix spontaneously stopped his steps and looked at the two men on his right and left. "Thank you for the offer. However, I'd rather not buy anything if it's borrowed."
With that, he resumed his steps at a slightly faster pace. Reluctant to engage those who loved to bring up the same topic, money.
He had lived this kind of life for a long time, so he was no longer affected by such things.
So what if you don't have a lot of money? Does that sound embarrassing?
Do they think Felix doesn't want money? Felix wanted to. He wanted to be rich, but there was no power, he was only given this.
"Sigh, what's the point of being so arrogant?" The man on the right clucked sarcastically and walked away.
As for the other man, he was annoyed by Felix's arrogance, which he found very annoying. So he shouted, "Felix, you're poor enough as it is, don't be so pretentious! There's nothing wrong with borrowing money as long as you don't look too pathetic!"
This brought laughter from some of the workers.
Felix was not bothered at all.
He made his way to the cement mixer and set about his task diligently. However, while digging in the sand, he noticed something shiny. Out of curiosity, he put down his tools and picked it up, which turned out to be a ring with a ruby-red stone.

Felix's office door closed slowly. Van stood by the door, one hand still on the handle, making sure no one was eavesdropping, even though it was late at night and all the employees had gone home.In the middle of the room, Moretti stood with his back straight, his shirt wrinkled from the long journey. But his face was paler than the last time he appeared at headquarters.Felix did not greet him or ask him to sit down. He didn't even look at him, as if his presence was invisible.It was precisely this attitude that made Moretti even more tense. Sweat began to appear on his temples, even though the room's air conditioning was on.Van, who was watching, could almost feel his feelings at that moment. He swallowed several times nervously. His heart kept screaming with gratitude that he had not remained trapped in his arrogance.It was unimaginable if, at that time, he still hated Felix and continued to work at this company. His life now might not be any better than Moretti's."Thank you fo

“Help me bring Moretti here.” Felix picked up a document from the nightstand in his hospital room. “His last known location was in a village outside the city. Given what’s happened, he’s probably trying to avoid anyone, so his location will likely keep changing.”“Use this document to pressure him. Jorell and I can’t keep traveling outside the city for long. And you know..." Felix glanced briefly at Clarita, who was still fast asleep on the sofa.Van, realizing his friend's difficult situation, could only smile wryly and nod in understanding."Don't worry. Leave this to me," he said, taking the document."Be careful not to attract attention," Felix warned.Van nodded. "I know. Then I'll be going."After he left, Felix took a deep breath.Simon had been found, the fabric supplier issue was being addressed, and Moretti, the middleman who played an important role in this matter, was also being sought.Now all that was left was to wait for good news before facing the board directly.**Na

"Sir! Sir, wait! I want to talk!" Simon shouted, trying to stick his head out the window as their car stopped in front of a villa. Felix, who was giving further orders to the bodyguard on duty, suddenly looked at the rearview mirror. "Bring him here!" he ordered."Sir! I want to talk! Let me out! I won't run away!" Simon continued to shout until the bodyguard, who was about to open the door for him, pushed his head back inside."Shut your mouth if you don't want me to break your legs!" threatened the bodyguard.Simon's courage immediately shrank. But he still said, "I have something to say to Mr. Felix.""That's why I came to pick you up." The bodyguard signaled to his two friends who were guarding Simon. "Take him!"The thin body was dragged down and approached the car Felix was riding in.Ignoring the many bodyguards on guard, he pulled his hand until their grip loosened and ran closer. "Sir, why did Iris freeze her account?"“Haven’t you forgotten about her? Why are you still aski

"Sir, is this really the place?" asked Secretary Jorell, staring at the tall, dingy building in front of him."We'll find out after we check it out," replied Felix, stepping forward with the help of his cane.The apartment had dim lights and was not listed on any rental app. The elevator only went up to the ninth floor; the rest had to be reached via a narrow staircase rarely used.No wonder this place had escaped everyone's attention, because its appearance alone made people reluctant to approach it. It was a safe place to hide.Felix stopped in front of a rusty iron door covered in graffiti. His brow furrowed spontaneously."He seems to be inside," Secretary Jorell said softly as he tried to peek through the gap in the door, which was no longer tightly sealed. "According to our informant, there has been no movement from this apartment."Felix stared blankly at the door in front of him. "He couldn't have gone anywhere."At that moment, Secretary Jorell's cell phone rang. He was start

Everyone immediately stopped what they were doing. They stared at Clarita in unison, curious."Who?" asked Felix."I don't know. The nurse just said that some people were looking for Felix Pratama." Clarita thought for a moment, then continued with equal curiosity. "Doesn't that mean there are a lot of people?"Her eyes widened instantly, and she sat up anxiously. "Felix, could it be people from the company? They're trying to find out where you are but aren't telling each other. It's like they're competing to bring you down.""If that's the case, shouldn't we leave here? Sir, I'll find another hospital for you." Secretary Jorell hurriedly took out his cell phone.But Felix said, "No need. The most dangerous place is the safest place. Besides, it's not certain that they are the ones who came."Felix looked at them, who seemed confused, and finally explained, "It could be that those who come are sent by one person. Even though they are indeed looking for me, they couldn't have come on t

The supply chain is back in motion without any official announcement. There has been no press statement. No media clarification. Not even confirmation to the board.Everything is being done quietly, as if yesterday's detention was just a minor disruption not worth mentioning.Felix stands in front of the window of his hospital room, watching the city traffic move as usual.Behind him, Secretary Jorell sat with a tablet in hand, reading real-time reports. "The fabric shipment has entered the production line. There are no significant delays. Everything is running smoothly," he said.Felix nodded. "How did they react?""They didn't," replied Secretary Jorell. "They didn't ask or discuss this at all. But isn't that strange?"Felix smiled slightly. "They can't just stay silent after failing."Secretary Jorell put down his tablet. "The follow-up article wasn't published. But there has been a shift in the narrative, sir."Felix turned his head and slowly sat back down. "Explain!""It's... th
